GOP Concerned About ‘Computerized Voter Fraud’?

RNC Notes Variance From Polling Results Could Cast Doubt On 'Validity of Election Results'...

Share article:

An ironic and interesting item that we missed as it ran yesterday, but which we’ll store away for future reference [emphasis added]…

On Tuesday, Forensicon, a Chicago computer forensic company, said that it was contacted last week by a security firm last week to assist the Republic National Committee (RNC) in challenging cases of “computerized voter fraud.”

If the election returns vary significantly from the polled numbers in any precincts that proves crucial to the election outcome, I expect that a legal struggle over the validity of the election results will ensue,” said Forensicon’s President, Lee Neubecker in a press release.

The move seems to indicate a future move by the RNC to challenge certain voting results, in some contradiction to past RNC actions regarding electronic voting

    Why wait until the results vary from the poll numbers? Outlaw all electronic vote tabulation devices now, and avoid the problem in the first place.

    That should or rather they should say “election fraud” cause voters don’t have access to the machines but election officials do. But they wouldn’t accuse themselves now would they.

    this corresponds with obama campaign’s dnc backing off of work, or atleast complaining, as it looked as if he would win. who really controlls the machine?

    ‘”If the election returns vary significantly from the polled numbers in any precincts that proves crucial to the election outcome, ‘

    some democract should raise the issue of vote fraud 2004 with these people. And remind them that in 2004, number DID vary significantly..in favour of republicans..AND ask them why the secretary of state in Ohio,a republican was both in charge of electoins AND on the Committee to relect the ‘president’….

    The best news I’ve heard lately is that Obama is considering Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to head the Environmental Protection Agency.

    Yes – THAT Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.:

    Was the 2004 Election Stolen?

    Greg Palast and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: “Steal Back Your Vote!”

    Block the Vote — Will the GOP’s campaign to deter new voters and discard Democratic ballots determine the next president?

    His appointment to Obama’s Cabinet can only lead to good things for us.

    Your mindset speaks volumes.

    I was interested in seeing what the vote fraud community was saying this year, but you are the vote fraud poo-pooing crowd this time!

    Note that instead of saying that you have contacted these new allies in the quest to clean up elections, you say “we’ll store away for future reference”. No analysis of their claims.

    Just another partisan blowhard douchebag.

    You are the fraud. Investigate yourself.

    I really feeldisgusted at this election concerning both sides. I think John Mc Cain had a shitass election squad and now they are blaming Sara Palin for their lack of effort. On the other side I don’t see how people could vote for someone as inexperienced as Obama,but then money talks does it not. also, how could you possibly want a man with so much of a hidden past to run our country, I just hope your no all sorry later.

    I forgot something. Did anybody think to count the total number of votes against the total population in those cities accused of voter fraud, I know if I was spending that kind of money and time to be elected to an office and a question of voter fraud was mentioned I would be sitting next to the person doing the counting. If I was John Mc Cain I would have made them delay the election until all those fraudulant voter registration cards were properly disposed of.

    There probably will not be voter confidence in elections until we get rid of machines in our election process. I’m sure PTB (powers that be), didn’t want this election to be a laughing stock to Americans and other countries as in the past, so for appearances sake, it went off without a hitch. We know different – I haven’t heard MSM reporting any of this. Enough analysis…we need petitions and an organized push to bombard our congressmen to repeal/amend HAVA. Get rid of machines! Go with paper ballots, pencil and oversight of counters by both/all parties, like Canada. Add language to ensure that all eligible registered voters are protected from suppression, caging, intimidation, lies. Offenders will be proecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

    Yes, I voted for Obama because I feel he is the most qualified for the job…but that is my opinion. Just because he won the election, I still feel machines do not belong in the election process and we need election reform.

    These bastards have the DOJ brainwashed! Mirror

    NOTICE: They have a frigging VOTER FRAUD hotline 202-514-1412! Strangely they lump Election Fraud together with Voter Fraud. (I wonder how that language / definition / corruption could have happened?)

    Okay DOJ / FBI, so where’s the ELECTRONIC VOTE TABULATION DEVICE FRAUD HOTLINE?

    OH that’s right there IS NONE!!!

    Nothing for FLIPPED votes, everything for no voter ID.

    2010 . I can hardly fucking wait.

    So someone stole the election the GOP thought it stole? Ban all non-verifiable electronic voting machines. If Diebold’s lottery machines can print off tickets memorializing the numbers you filled in, then why can’t it print off a receipt of the candidates you voted for? One word – corruption.
